Syrian-American comedian Nasser Al-Rayess, known as @naw_sir and “the Shawarma King,” has quickly become a significant force in comedy. With sharp wit and a focus on Arab-American identity, Nasser offers fresh takes on pop culture and current events. His observational humor, particularly around identity and Arab music, has earned him over a million followers across platforms.

Nasser’s impact goes beyond social media with his stand-up comedy that blends humor, Arabic music, and the feel of a traditional Arab gathering. His interactive comedy show has toured internationally, performing in cities like Dubai, New York City, Chicago, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and more. He recently completed his summer tour across 11 cities, including performing in the historic Irvine and San Jose Improv. Nasser is now gearing up for his “Arab Enough” comedy tour this fall, spanning over 16 cities nationwide.
